Apparently there were 1 million requests for the men's 100m final!

BBC News - London 2012: One million bid for Olympics 100m tickets

*still impatiently checking bank accounts and still nada*

Yep, Susanna Reid said so this morning.

Sounds like those tickets were far too cheap

 

[Cecil]

Still nothing !!!!!!! Given up on the mens 100 metres final then

 

[Rowdey]

So, if my maths stands up, thats 4% chance for the main event.. Surprised it's that high TBH..

Wonder what my 4x400 final and 4 x 400 hurdles chances are maybe 10-20%..?

Didn't realise there was such an event as the 4x4 hurdles.

PS. LOCOG have still not raided my bank account!!

Apparently money is now being taken from cards a source has told James Pearce :

Twitter
London 2012 tell me they HAVE now started taking card payments. Say they remain on course to take from 60% of the cards by next Wednesday

*still obsessively checking accounts but with no result*

 

[Jam The Man]

I've had a chunk of money go from my running balance this afternoon...it *may* mean some of my tickets have been successful... or it very equally may NOT!

Hopefully the details will appear tomorrow...

Farce

"The London 2012 organising committee has promised that 60% will have been debited by Wednesday but the BBC has still not come across a single applicant who has had a card debited."

I can confirm it was a false alarm

Monday 17:40.

Still no 2012Olympics transactions showing online in credit card account.

 

[Vatican Citys No.2 Keeper]

just checked, and nothing still!

 

[Notters]

TBH I'd rather they wait till next Tuesday when I get paid.

 

[Giraffe]

I wonder if they are processing them all as they go but with a collection date of this Wednesday or something like that?

Or is this going to be one big disappointment for all of us?!

 

[drew]

They still haven't taken anything from me.

Other than "the piss"

 

[Southstandfaithful]

Just checked nada

 

[KLUNK]

I've got about £140 pending from my bank account mysteriously. My dear wife will have something to do with it,but not by that amount at all. Think theres approx a ton coming out on something? Checked last few months direct debits around this date,so really dunno what else it could be etc. Sure to be an anti-climax when I check account in the morning...

 

[Sir Norman Gull]

Just to join the long list of no shows-nothing yet-been checking credit card daily online,unless tickets are being issued by Morrisons or Tesco's in my pending!!

 

[tubaman]

Nothing...............did we all fill the form in correctly? There wasn't a tie break question was there?
